A leisurely day on the water can be so good for the soul. We have a ton of waterways – rivers, lakes, and creeks – that are perfect for boating, canoeing, and kayaking. Even if you’ve never kayaked before, for example, you won’t have much trouble, if any, when you slip your kayak into Swatara Creek, perhaps the best place for beginner kayakers in Pennsylvania.
Embark on what promises to be the first of many kayaking adventures along Swatara Creek with Cocoa Kayaks of Hershey, a popular outfitter that offers “gentle creek kayaking.”
